MA103 - Foundations of Mathematics (3)
Gen Ed Math
Prerequisite: MA 81 or MA 83 or appropriate score on mathematics placement test
Covers various topics within mathematics for those who need a survey of mathematical
principles rather than the in-depth analysis required for a mathematics or science-related
program. Areas covered may include problem-solving strategies, logic, numeration
systems, set theory, classification of numbers, algebra, financial management, geometry,
measurement and right triangle trigonometry, probability, statistics, graphs, systems of
equations, linear programming, graph theory, and voting theory. Students cannot receive

MA103A - Foundations of Mathematics (3)
Prerequisites: MA 80 or appropriate score on mathematics placement test AND placement in EN 70 or ESL 70 or
higher on the reading placement test
Combines topics with Algebra with topics from college math for those whose need is a survey
of mathematical principles rather than the in-depth analysis required for a mathematics or
science-related program. This course begins with a course in Algebra followed immediately
by a survey of college math. Topics of Algebra include linear equations, quadratic functions,
exponential functions, and logarithmic equations with an emphasis on functions, graphing,
and modeling. Topics of college math covered may include problem solving strategies, logic,
numeration systems, classification of numbers, algebra, financial management, geometry,
measurement and right triangle trigonometry, probability, statistics, graphs, systems of
equations, linear programming. Students cannot receive credit for both MA 103 and MA 103A.

Topics include historical development of numeration systems, decimal notation, arithmetic
algorithms in decimal and other bases, elementary set theory and number theory. Intended
for early childhood and elementary education students, or other non-STEM majors, who need
a general course in problem-solving strategies, numeracy, and the real number system.

Elementary Education A.A.T. degrees only.
A study of the fundamentals of geometry for early childhood education and elementary
education students. Provides a conceptually based background in geometry including plane
and solid, metric and non-metric, dimensional analysis, congruence and similarity, coordinate
and transformational geometry. Emphasizes problemsolving skills and the appropriate use of
technology including calculators and computers.
